Damn, has the viewing experience of "Stellaris" Season 2 changed this much? The production team really has guts!
This human purgatory of rusted steel and steam—I could feel the despair even through the screen.
The theme of "Ember" in Season 1 was destruction and rebirth. Could the theme of "Glimmer" in Season 2 be despair and hope?
Don't say that—the word "Glimmer" really does seem to carry a hint of salvation.
Although it was only a simple bar opening.
And the two named characters who appeared were both unfamiliar figures who had never shown up before.
The Dimensional Audience still caught a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg that was the "Steam Capital: Lower City" through this apocalyptic wasteland atmosphere.
This place called "Hell."
Really was despairing enough.

Bertrand gritted his teeth and, trembling fingers, grabbed the five bullets on the table.
Then dropped every last one of them into the beer.
Plop—

As though what he had drunk was not beer at all.
But the air in the Lower City of the Steam Capital that drove countless people to "despair."
This was the unique sight of "Hell."
